Polsinelli on Post-Grant | Intellectual Property Blog

Polsinelli has built one of the nation’s deepest PTAB practices, serving clients in a wide range of technical areas. Unlike many firms, Polsinelli actively works with both Petitioners looking to challenge patent validity and Patent Owners who are trying to preserve their patents. We work closely with our clients to understand their business objectives and then formulate a plan that aligns their PTAB strategy with their overall litigation, licensing, or patent prosecution goals.

The practice’s robust patent team is made up of a combination of patent litigators, patent prosecutors and technical experts, including a former Director of the USPTO. This depth enables us to navigate the complex procedural, substantive and strategic issues posed by PTAB proceedings to deliver superior results for our clients.

On March 1-3, 2017 the PTABBar Association had its first annual conference. The conference started with a “Bootcamp” for attorneys, which explained the different proceedings available at the Office, with special focus on the Inter Partes Review Proceeding. The Conference then proceeded to address the current state of proceedings before the Office and address important issues facing the Bar. Prior to the PTABBar Conference, the Association also produced and distributed a Webinar. Here we share a list of topics that we found interesting, along with summaries of how those topics were addressed by the Speakers of each event.
